What happened to abbott & Costello??
This should have been an abbott & Costello film!
The film was okay to see some young actors at the start of their carees. Typical of the 1940's comedy/musical films.

Take the Andrew sisters and Harry James - and what would you expect? Well known Andrew Sister hits with some great trumpet work by Harry James. Unfortunately most of the music was unknown stuff such as "Six jerks in a jeep". The only well known song was "Don't sit under the apple tree". Although the music was happy it wasn't great.
The story line was weak and acting not so great. Characters lacked any real depth and never got to develop.
I didn't enjoy the film. I wouldn't watch this again - once is sufficient.

is an upbeat movie, and the Andrews Sisters add pizzazz. Imagine the modern dead-weight carcass of Hollywood making a film like that. Movies now are just an endless cycle of sarcasm and foul language. No talent whatsoever.
After the credits, keep watching the shorts and H. G. Wells' 'Things To Come'. That movie combines Buck Rogers and Mad Max.

Don't forget to check out the young Donald O'Connor, playing Donny. Not a bad way to wile away part of an evening. More of a musical vehicle than anything else, but pleasant none the less !
